Cut the avocado into two, discard
the stone and scoop out the flesh
with a spoon into a small mixing
bowl
Add the garlic and onion and
pulse a little with the hand
blender to mix
Add the tomato, cumin and some
salt and pepper and continue
pulsing until the tomato is
roughly crushed. Then add the
lime juice and pulse for a few
more seconds
The texture should be crushed
and creamy but not completely
smooth
Spoon into a pretty bowl and
serve with tortilla chips, bread
sticks, crisp breads or toast
fingers
SALMON PÂTÉ (Serves two)
QUICK GUACAMOLE (serves two or three)
Fresh homemade guacamole takes
next to no time to prepare using the
Dualit hand blender and makes an
excellent little dish to serve with
drinks. For a bright green colour,
make this no more than 10 minutes
ahead of serving. (See recipe for
Avocado sauce (page 18) for a tip on
keeping the colour.)
